SMS Food Drive Update:

On the fifth day of the food drive, the students sent to me

Five pounds of spuds,

Four canned hams,

Three Bush's baked beans,

Two tomato sauces,

Some rice and a can of green beans."

Mrs. Olson's, Mrs. Navarre's, and Miss Remsen's classes all got on the board in the last two days. Mr. Hankel's class is still well out in front with 157 pounds, and Mr. Clary's and Miss Remsen's classes are very close to each other for 2nd and 3rd places, with 61 and 59 pounds, respectively. Our new overall total is 536 pounds, so we need about 1500 pounds by next Friday, December 16th to get to our 2,000 pound goal. Keep bringing in those canned and dry goods, and thank you for supporting our food drive!
